Allen-Bradley 1734-485ASC Point I/O RS-485/RS-422 ASCII Interface,
Series C
The Allen-Bradley 1734-485ASC is a Point I/O RS-485/RS-422 ASCII
Interface module, specifically the Series C version. It is designed
to provide RS-485 and RS-422 communication capabilities for ASCII
devices in an industrial control system. Here's some information
about this module:
1. Manufacturer: Allen-Bradley (a brand of Rockwell Automation)
2. Model: 1734-485ASC
3. Module Type: RS-485/RS-422 ASCII Interface
4. Series: The "Series C" designation indicates the specific
version or revision of the module. It helps identify any updates or
improvements made to the module since its initial release.
5. Communication Protocol: The module supports the RS-485 and
RS-422 communication protocols, which are standard protocols used
for serial communication between devices.
6. ASCII Interface: The 1734-485ASC module is specifically designed
for ASCII devices. It allows the Point I/O system to communicate
with devices that use the ASCII protocol, such as barcode readers,
scales, and other ASCII-based equipment.
7. Compatibility: The module is part of the Allen-Bradley Point I/O
system, which is a distributed I/O solution. It can be used with
other Point I/O modules and connected to a compatible Allen-Bradley
programmable logic controller (PLC) or other control devices.
8. Configuration: The module can be configured using the
Allen-Bradley RSLogix 5000 software, which is the programming
environment for Allen-Bradley PLCs. You can set up the module's
parameters, such as baud rate, parity, and data format, to match
the requirements of the connected ASCII devices.
9. Data Exchange: The 1734-485ASC module enables data exchange
between the Point I/O system and ASCII devices. It can send and
receive data in ASCII format, allowing for seamless integration of
ASCII-based equipment into the industrial control system.
10. RS-485/RS-422 Interface: The module provides RS-485 and RS-422
communication interfaces, which are commonly used for
longer-distance serial communication and in industrial environments
that require noise immunity and multi-drop communication.
The Allen-Bradley 1734-485ASC Point I/O RS-485/RS-422 ASCII
Interface module, Series C, offers a convenient solution for
integrating RS-485 and RS-422 ASCII devices into an industrial
control system. By using this module, you can easily communicate
with and control ASCII-based equipment, such as barcode readers or
scales, from your Allen-Bradley PLC or other control devices.
